LABORATORY MANUAL: Laboratory Experiments in College Physics. Seventh Edition. Bernard and Epp CORE OBJECTIVES / TOPICS: Core topics to be covered in all General Physics II-A lecture classes: a. electricity b. magnetism c. optics d. modern physics The following course objectives cover the minimum core topics that are listed above for this course. Additional objectives are taught at the discretion of the instructor.

  1. Determine the potential distribution from simple charge arrangements with spherical, cylindrical or planar distributions.
  2. Solve potential and charge distribution problems for capacitors in simple circuits.
  3. Use the Kirchhoff equations to solve for current and potential distributions in simple dc circuits; solve for transient currents and voltages in simple RC circuits.
  4. Describe trajectories of charged particles moving in uniform magnetic fields; calculate the forces on current carrying conductors in uniform magnetic fields.
  5. Calculate magnetic fields arising from simple current distributions; use Ampere's law to find distributions of magnetic fields.
  6. Explain the operation of simple DC motors and generators.
  7. Determine mutual and self-inductance for simple arrangements of coils.
  8. Calculate the phasors for resistive, capacitive and inductive elements in ac circuits; determine the resonant condition for AC circuits.
